Ingredients

Scale

Fresh Ingredients

  • 4 ripe tomatoes
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 eggs
  • 4 corn tortillas
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • 1 avocado, sliced

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sauce: In a skillet over medium heat, sauté chopped onions and minced garlic until fragrant. Add diced tomatoes, spices, and let simmer until the sauce thickens slightly.
  2. Cook the Eggs: In another pan, cook the eggs to your liking—sunny-side up is traditional for Huevos Rancheros, but feel free to scramble or poach them.
  3. Warm the Tortillas: Lightly toast the tortillas in a skillet until they are warm and pliable, which will serve as the perfect base for your eggs and sauce.
  4. Assemble the Dish: Place a tortilla on a plate, spoon the tomato sauce over it, and top with the cooked eggs. Finish with avocado slices and fresh cilantro.

Notes

  • Use Fresh Ingredients: The quality of tomatoes and herbs will greatly affect the flavor.
  • Don’t Rush the Sauce: Letting the sauce simmer enhances the flavors.
  • Experiment with Eggs: Try different cooking methods to find your favorite style.
  • Adjust the Spice: Taste and adjust spices according to your heat preference.
  • Perfect Tortilla Technique: Lightly char your tortillas for added flavor and texture.
